"Lompoc received its funding of $10,000 in 1909. The library was dedicated in 1910 and completed in 1911. W.H. Weeks’ architectural design of the Lompoc library is known as "Classical Revival" or "Greek Temple". In recognition of its social and architectural significance, the structure was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990 along with 84 other California Carnegie Libraries. A plaque at the northwest corner of the property also identifies the building as Lompoc Historical Landmark No. 1." (visit link)
